pam lach (she/her)Still reflecting on how powerful it was to be in community with so many kind, caring, thoughtful, smart people at #ACH2024. It meant so much to spend a challenging week in your company, and I’m grateful for our fantastic planning team who approached the work with intention and love 🫶
Quinn DombrowskiIn a #ACH2024 lightning talk session with lots of (not only) grad students making databases, I'm struck by how much progress we've made in the last 10 years. People are thinking of their data as data and not first as website. Long term stability is part of the conversation. It's beautiful to see.
Props to Monika Dabrowska for saying at the top of her #ACH2024 presentation that she's most comfortable in Spanish and will be presenting in that language. The English slides are providing the highlights for folks who can't do Spanish. #MultilingualDH can be no big deal.
Brandon WalshTalk two of two! A preview, if you will. I'm talking with Seanna Viechweg at #ACH2024 tonight on "Speculative Digital Pedagogies." We preemptively blogged a rough version of the talk we'll give later. Some thoughts about the past, present, and futures in digital pedagogy.
Thanks to a great suggestion in the #ACH2024 chat, we now have a Ravelry group for #DHmakes! All are welcome. www.ravelry.com/groups/dhmakes

Molly Morin has offered us 10 minutes for an interactive activity, knitting, petting cats, whatever feels good. Kiki does not understand why this isn't a standard part of all conference talks. #ACH2024
@drnikki.bsky.social points us to this podcast in the framework of remix. We already have the elements we need for a better, more liveable world, we just need to rearrange them. #ACH2024

Molly Mori references Healther Schulte, "A Plague on Both Houses", cross-stitching through the NYT to form a kind of redaction. #DHmakes #ACH2024
@drnikki.bsky.social: getting trans-affirming care involves filling out forms in certain ways to conform to a standard narrative. You learn this in community. Analogizes it to redaction, like you'd get in response to a FOIA request. Molly Morin gives examples of artistic use of redaction. #ACH2024
@drnikki.bsky.social notes that there's been an abandonment of boxes in forms for the organic (e.g. in Common App, with rounded shapes), but it's going towards biometric, fingerprint scans. Wavy lines can be(come) equally problematic. #ACH2024
